  1. I have a pair, they certainly do the job. Used them all of 24 hour solo last year ..... Bought mine at Just Cycles in Alberton (011-869-0646) I doubt they can take optic inserts but I may (small chance ) be wrong ....
  2. Bob Bob Bob ....... I know that this may surprise most 'ubbers but yes this is first and foremost a cycling forum
  3. +1 I have had a similar experience on long rides when it's hot
  4. When he handed it to me he said 'you smiling, it's not so bad?'
  5. Hozay is here .... saw a tweet that he has arrived in SA, dunno if he's racing though. He gave me my medal last year
  6. Bought this off the hub to replace the 'archaic' 2005 F100X Terralogic on my 2010 Epic But as usual nothing is 'simple' .... the XTR calipers are 'IS' mount and the new fork is Post Mount - but I just happened to have this nifty adapter in a drawer in my bedroom! Ok does mean I have to run a 180 rotor but had one of those as well - bliss It being Talas I can run 90/110/130 - advice provided by Dangle is to run 90 'normally' and at most 110 - what would I do with 130 anyway!
  7. Sorry guys but all of this discussion has been helpful to the OP and his/her question in what way Can all this be summed up with 'keep your current fork and if you really want to rather upgrade your wheels'? #ekprobeernetverstaan
  8. "I can recreate the sound if i hold the front break brake and rock forward." Surely that would indicate something around the headset/fork/front wheel ........ #notabikemechanic
  9. I know that most will say I'm just a 'pissy' (as Marius would have said) and should HTFU but what y'all think of this statement (keeping in mind the Sabie issues recently as well ....) “Traditionally, downhill has been a spectator sport,” continues Floros. “There are tumbles, stylish ‘big air’, challenging obstacles, and now cross-country is going that way." I guess AM 650b bikes will be the way to go
  10. I used to be able to afford at least 1 stage race a year (did SabieX 5 years in a row) but no more - I guess they won't/don't miss me though
  11. IMHO this has nothing to do with how the contents are carried or packaged, these type of people will do it regardless
  12. Isn't that what I get a mail about very now and then .... 'ERTO will be implemented tonight at midnight and points will be deducted for traffic offences'
  13. Just don't tear the sleeves off before you go .......
  14. I told you nothing good would come of them 'squaw' pictures and stuff on your skins
  15. No need you're 'in' by default
  16. It's a bit like 'SS Zen' you know if you're 'in' .... I've yet to experience either one
  17. Just don't forget to unlock!
  18. It's not something you can 'join' .....
  19. That should be easy, patch the hubber says wearing clothes that are too small for you (i.e. lycra) is silly so no costume required
